A hat for Yarn Along

I have another small finish this week this hat and for once I had a lovely little model:

I knit it with a Lorna's Lace sock yarn. Angie at The Knitting Basket gave me an "opened" skein of yarn.  However as I can't knit socks I decided to knit a hat using my favourite pattern for the store and have another one on my needles for my little model!!
I have read two books this week.  I have yet to post my review:




I did post the list of books we are going to read over the next year at our book club here, if you want to take a look?

I love the new hat and the model is beautiful too!
I have not read a book fully for probably six weeks since we started renovations. Hopefully soon I will be able to sit and read for more than ten minutes at a time.
Have a great day!

Hi Gill! I made a hat, too! It went so smoothly and turned out well. I look weird in hats, but if I'm cold enough, I'll wear it.
That is a lovely little hat and an even lovelier model!

Gorgeous hat and sweet little model! Love all the yarn colours. I will have to use your book club list as a reading list too. I have read a few, but not many and they all look great.

What a cute hat--on such a cute model!

I now have access to two digital libraries and I went and check the one for The Vagrants and it had it...I have it on my kindle, but won't get to read it for a while as I have another one I just started. So, far, I usually like what you like...that I have read anyway. Now want to see if I feel the same as you about this book.

I know I got a book once..PAID for it even...it had a lot of good reviews. and to me it was just a pile of words all run together. I did not finish it. I think I read a hundred pages and didn't like it any better by then and thought why waste my time.
